HIKING & NATURE WALKS

Glimmerglass State Park: 
Glimmerglass State Park, located eight miles outside the village of
Cooperstown, overlooks Otsego Lake, the "Glimmerglass" of James
Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales. The rolling, partially-wooded
terrain is host to a wide variety of wildlife. An uphill trail through the forest affords a spectacular view of Otsego Lake; the Beaver Pond and
Woodland trails are picturesque and of interest for the variety of wildflowers, shrubs, ferns and mosses. The Hyde Hall Mansion, Covered Bridge, and a self-guided Beaver Pond Nature Trail are within park boundaries and open to visitors.
Entrance off Route 31, East Springfield, NY.
